X-EXTRAINFO:Self-assembly has always been a promising route to achieve novel materials.
  This has been possible by decades of research and laying down of principle
 s governing the phenomenon. Almost all of this assembly is under thermodyna
 mic parameters and provide minimal help in exploring a temporally driven di
 mension of self-assembly. On the other hand in biological systems, which ha
 ve always served as an omnipresent inspiration for self-assembly, control t
 heir aggregates and function temporally with\nunparalleled deft. Considerin
 g the conventional self-assembly one wonders if the complexity and dexterit
 y of biological systems is ever to be matched and perhaps one might tread o
 n diverse scientific routes for kinetically controlled self-assembly.\nWe, 
 in our laboratory, are driven by this philosophy and are currently trying t
 o understand both thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of self-assembly. This 
 talk describes our efforts in understanding a very key concept of biologica
 l self-assembly which is temporal control over aggregates via a chemical fu
 el as we think this approach can singlehandedly cater to various existing c
 hallenges of supramolecular chemistry such as a living supramolecular polym
 erization, control over\nnucleation rate, transient materials and formation
  of supramolecular hetero-structures.\nI will be discussing our results by 
 taking supramolecular systems, which we have been working on during the las
 t few years.
